Event description
We invite you to join us on the 13th-14th November 2023 for the second Australia-New Zealand Natural Products Chemistry and Biology Symposium.
This symposium will be an opportunity for researchers to showcase their work in natural products research and discuss the future of the field in Australasia. The program will span 1.5 days and will be held at the Bayliss Building at the University of Western Australia. The symposium will run in the days directly before the Synthetic Biology Australasia Conference, also to be held at UWA.
We have four exciting plenary sessions:

Registration
Registration cost is $125 per participant and includes lunch, social drinks at the poster sessions as well as coffee, tea, and refreshments.
Abstract submission
The program will be interdisciplinary centred around the theme of natural products, including aspects of microbiology, biochemistry and chemistry. We invite abstracts from student, early career, and established researchers. The program will include oral presentations and poster presentations along with lightning talks.
The abstract template can be found here. Please send your abstracts to ausnz.npcbs@gmail.com and indicate in your email if you would prefer an oral or poster presentation. Abstract submission closes on the 31st of August.
